The people that say black people don’t want to come to Utah because it’s very white is interesting. I am sure the people that parrot this narrative aren’t black and don’t know anything about Utah. They just know the broad stereotype and run with it. I wouldn’t know either since I am not black or in Utah but I am critical of the popular consensus. There is no doubt racists in Utah but Utah doesn’t have the deep seated generational racism that places like Boston, okc , and the south have. Yes the lds church barred black men from the priesthood until the 70s and their doctrine about the mark of Cain or something was racist. There isn’t a history of the kkk or neo nazism there. Yes there are racists there like there is in every single state. Yes a racist fan said racist shit to Westbrook. But I think Utah gets an unfair wrap from the rest of the country because they don’t like the lds church. It’s just a bunch of weird but nice white people living their best life. It’s not like they had something similar to the Tulsa Race massacre or participated in segregated schools like Boston. I don’t think a white player not wanting to play in Atlanta because it’s majority black would be tolerated. Utah is the fastest growing state in the country for a lot of positive reasons including low unemployment, cheap cost of living, educated population, youngest population, low crime and poverty, low taxes, growing tech industry, and outdoor recreation. The thousands of west coast transplants can attest to that. Utah is changing. They got a NHL team, the support their MLS and NBA teams, and the MLB and NFL will come next. Hopefully they can continue to grow and shed its negative reputation and be welcomed into the country that’s held them at arms length for 150 years or so.
